dc.description.abstractObjective The aim of this study was to examine the use of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in online counseling for children with single-incident trauma.Method A qualitative case study method was employed. The research was conducted with two volunteering children and their parents. The sessions were transcribed by the authors, and code names (Ipek and Eyl & uuml;l) were assigned to protect the participants' identities. & Idot;pek's traumatic memory was explored through drawing pictures with tactile bilateral stimuli and Eyl & uuml;l's traumatic experience was addressed using tactile bilateral stimuli during the EMDR therapeutic story technique. The Child Revised Impact of Events Scale (CRIES-8) was used for pre-test, post-test, and follow-up testing to support the session descriptions.Results The results indicated that post-traumatic symptoms were reduced and remained at a low level for an extended period in both clients.Conclusions It is suggested that future studies should explore various bilateral stimulation methods in online EMDR, conduct larger-scale studies with children who have experienced different types of traumatic events, and investigate the impact of various EMDR protocols on children.
